1AND THE LORD spoke unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tent of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying:
1Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai, ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻo hono ua ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono ua taʻu ʻo ʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo pehē,
2'Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers' houses, according to the number of names, every male, by their polls;
2“Mou lau ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo fakatatau mo e fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻo lau kotoa pē ʻi honau hingoa, ʻae kakai tangata kotoa pē taki taha;
3from twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel: ye shall number them by their hosts, even thou and Aaron.
3Mei honau taʻu ʻe uofulu tupu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku mālohi ke ʻalu atu ke tau ʻi ʻIsileli: ko koe mo ʻElone ke mo lau ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi matatau.
4And with you there shall be a man of every tribe, every one head of his fathers' house.
4Pea ʻe fakataha mo kimoua ha tangata ʻe tokotaha mei he faʻahinga kotoa pē; ko ia taki taha ʻoku ʻeiki ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.”
5And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you: of Reuben, Elizur the son of Shedeur.

47But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
47¶ Ka naʻe ʻikai lau ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau Livai ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
48And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
48He kuo folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
49'Howbeit the tribe of Levi thou shalt not number, neither shalt thou take the sum of them among the children of Israel;
49“ʻE ʻikai te ke lau ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Livai, pea ʻoua naʻa ke lau ʻakinautolu fakataha mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli:
50but appoint thou the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all the furniture thereof, and over all that belongeth to it; they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the furniture thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
50Ka ke fakanofo ʻae kau Livai ke pule ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni, pea mo e ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē ʻi ai, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻi ai, pea tenau fua ʻae fale fehikitaki, pea mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē; pea tenau ngāue ki ai, ʻo nofo takatakai ki he fale fehikitaki.
51And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up; and the common man that draweth nigh shall be put to death.
51Pea ʻoka ʻalu atu ʻae fale fehikitaki, ʻe vete hifo ia ʻe he kau Livai; pea ʻoka nofo ʻae fale fehikitaki, ʻe fokotuʻu ia ʻe he kau Livai: pea ko e muli ʻoku haʻu ke ofi ki ai ʻe tāmateʻi ia.
52And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man with his own camp, and every man with his own standard, according to their hosts.
52Pea ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli tenau fokotuʻu ʻa honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki, ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono ʻapitanga, pea mo e tangata taki taha ki hono fuka, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
53But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of the testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel; and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of the testimony.'
53Ka ʻe nofo ʻae kau Livai ʻo takatakai ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha houhau ki he fakataha ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea ʻe tokanga ʻae kau Livai ki he tauhi ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni.”
54Thus did the children of Israel; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
54Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo fekau mai ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese; naʻe pehē pe ʻenau fai.
